It’s often said that moment captured with the TBG (Tall Blonde Guy) is harder to come by, than a EuroMillions Lottery Jackpot win. That said, one can only imagine the emotion and tingling felt by one Barry Cocks, as he found himself face to face with one of the world’s greatest mysteries.
Let’s see what Barry had to say about the special moment:
Barry Cocks meets the great man..
Hi Seth,
I was meant to send this sooner, but I guess the whole experience has just been quite overwhelming, and has taken some time to get back to earth. I will try my best to put it into words with out missing anything out…..( sorry if it’s a bit long, but please bear with me, thanks:)
It was the morning of the Survivor casting, and my girl and myself popped down to check it out, after standing in the cold wind, and going nowhere in the queue for at least 7 min 26 sec, it was not for us, so the next best was to pop across to the Cape’s number One Saturday market, The OBM (Old Biscuit Mill) to see what little treasures we could find.(food and drink)
We parked at the secret car park (school across the road) and took a wonder around and after a while got a bit hungry and thirsty. So we made our way to the food court for a Pita and a Pint, which the fine gents at the good ol’ “Jack Black “ stall, were only to happy to oblige with, even at 09:15, you guys rock!!!
Anyway after some time my 3rd pint was dry, so it was only natural to grab another, besides it was at least 10:05 by now. I gazed over to my target the “Jack Black” stall, and there he was, behind the counter pouring a pint, in all his might, with almost a sort of glow. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing, and for a second almost blamed those nectar of the gods makers “Jack Black” for my vision, so I turned to my girl, Nats, and in a hushed sort of voice ( so as not to startle the great man) pointed him out, and she confirmed my vision, it was The TBG,….. we both knew what needed to be done….. PHOTO MOMENT!!!!
The best part about the whole experience, is due to his location that day, I got meet him another 6 or 7 or 8 or 9 I cant quite remember, times.
So all I can say is, “what started out, to be an attempt at a life changing opportunity with survivor, really did actually become one…..”
I would like to thank OBM, Jack Black and of course TBG for giving me the chance to tick one more thing of my Bucket list.. and lets not forget the, The Vibe, as well, so that I may share this amazing experience with others, and tell them to hang in there, it could also happen to you one day, oh yes.. it could also happen to you.
Thanks Seth for a great blog bra.
I’m sure I’m not the only one in tears at this stage. But not tears of sadness – tears of joy. Joy that another person’s life could be so dramatically changed, for the good – as so many before him have experienced.
And they say miracles don’t happen every day. What do you call this then?
God bless the TBG!
